Mercado dos Lavradores - Original Fish Market

Mercado dos Lavradores, Funchal's original fish market

This place has been prettied up and made "presentable" for the tourists but you can still get really fresh fish at a great price. I'll pop in a link for the local's secrets to buying fresh produce here. But it's definitely worth walking around. Make sure you check out the most delicious fish that's only found in Madeira. I like it "Espada grelhada" is what you should order. Maybe go to Doca do Cavacas for a nice fish dinner. We have tons of places to recommend first hand, so keep exploring!
